Actually has anyone ever figured out what the whole Mystery Calculator thing is? We gave up on it when the food turned up. Looks like it’s some kind of magic trick/maths puzzle

cracker hats are a nightmare if you have a shaved head

they just slide down my stupid head - not a fan

Hopefully you’ll get a mini stapler to fix this.

Wait whats the mystery calculator?

#22

Don’t like them.

#23

Missed a sitter there, tbh

Actually I like any of the gifts that make an annoying noise, and the tiny tape measure.

Best: I had this last year

Can’t believe you guys all weep at the slowly poisoned whales on Blue Planet II and then get excited about a totally pointless, plastic-crap waste-filled ‘tradition’

I was scrolling through this thread waiting for someone to say that the whole cracker thing needs to be knocked on the head.

It’s just an appalling waste of resources, a few seconds of “fun” and then more rubbish to process.

Yep, and the sanctimonious prick was me

300million crackers pulled in the UK each Christmas apparently

6million rolls of sellotape used to wrap presents too

230,000 tonnes of extra food waste as well

MERRY CHRISTMAS :christmas_tree::gift: :whale:

I’m glad that everyone on this forum will one day die.

You must have a massive head.

#36

Unfortunately, yes…

You’re completely right obviously. Stupid thing is though that a lot of this stuff could be substituted for more eco-friendly, recycleable alternatives. I’ve got no idea why wrapping paper needs to be coated with plastic for instance.
